We ensure sustainable management of the supply chain and the use of products and services with low environmental impact.
In 2022, Parques Reunidos approved a new Procurement Policy to optimize and standardize procurement processes.
The Group's suppliers must sign the Supplier Code of Conduct, in which they undertake to always act ethically and have the appropriate mechanisms to detect and combat fraud, bribery and corruption in all its forms.
To assess Parques Reunidos' suppliers beyond the technical and economic criteria, a questionnaire is sent to each supplier at the end of each tender. The questionnaire enables Parques Reunidos to obtain a quantitative view of the suppliers’ environmental, social and governance performance through a selfassessment in order to continue moving towards a more sustainable and socially responsible supply chain throughout the Group.
